A’s 4, Mariners 0 — Seattle finishes the homestand 2-4

A 2-4 homestand isn’t ideal. The Mariners didn’t play well. They scored a total of six runs against the A’s in the big three-game series. And the Astros series? Well, we all know it was bad.

Here’s the updated wild card standings. The Royals helped the Mariners by dropping two of three to the Red Sox at home to start their 10-game homestand. KC also has to complete the suspended game on Sept. 22 where they are down 4-2 to the Indians in the bottom of the 10th.
